All Strings Attached

Chapter 15

He angrily kicked open the door and when he was about to duck his head and move out, he felt a pair of strong arms wrapped around his torso from behind.

He looked down and saw Bright's arm around his abdomen, gently pulling him back. The tears that  build up were now sliding down his cheeks.

Its not like he wanted to fight with Bright. He also didn't expect him to surrender his ego, needless to say this fast.

Win who's hand was on car's door, gripped the metal hardly and resisted to sit back into the car. He was angry! How dare you play with my heart like that?

"Don't go" Bright whispered,still pulling him back "Come back"

Win felt weak at his legs and they trembled, making him fall back into the seat.

Bright let go of his abdomen and leaned towards him, putting his forehead over Win's shoulder, quietly. Just breathing. It was uneven and warm. Win could tell after all Bright's lips were on Win's shoulder.

His heart quivered. No one has ever messed with Win like that before. The most he had fought is with his dad and that would also end up with him laughing and running to his room.

The tears didn't just linger to his cheeks, they fell down on Bright's head, gentle salty droplets colliding with Bright's light coloured hair.

This is the first time he had cried after an argument. How come its different when it comes to Bright?

Bright raised his head after pecking Win's shoulder and rubbed his face before lazily starting the car again.

Win cleared his throat as he rubbed his eyes clean, looking ahead. His house could be seen from this distance.

"You really wanted to drink coffee?" Bright asked, changing the gear.

Win looked at him, his lips parted. He smiled through his puffy eyes and nodded "Now my throat is also all dry due to screaming"

Bright didn't see Win's face but just from his voice, he could tell Win's lips curled up in a small smile. Alone that thought made Bright chuckled that left a smile on his face for a long time.

He turned his car and drove back. Win sighed, his heart feeling much better after crying. He rested his head at the headrest of the seat and looked at the dark streets,  watching blurred colourful traffic lights shadow on the car ahead them. Fog almost making the window blurry.

Bright drove for a long time and finally they stopped outside a shop. Win who was really tired, held his head up and looked outside.

"Stay inside" Bright muttered and left the car, tugging his hand in his jacket's pockets as fog left his mouth as soon as he breath.

He went to the counter and ordered two ready to go hot coffees.

The cute girl at the counter kept giggling and tried to make small conversation with Bright.

He glanced outside and saw Win sitting in car.

"So what do you do for living?" She asked, taking her time to make coffee slowly.

Bright slammed the money on counter, making a bang noise and glared at the girl "Two fucking hot coffees"

The girl immediately nodded and hurriedly made coffees, handing those to him.

"Careful its ho-" She was in the middle when Bright snatched the coffees and made his way to the car.

He came to the car and Win looked at him, teasing "See ? You can be nice too"
